WOW Insider reviews Razer's newest mouse (the Naga) which is aimed squarely at WOW players in the link below. Note that the Naga mouse is for right handed players only, isn't wireless and works with both PCs and Macs. Also note that this is a multi-page review. Don't overlook the subtle links to following pages at the bottom of the page.

WOWHead also reviews the Naga mouse (as well as Razer's new mousepad) here. This is a brief review but it has good information about the video tutorial to help you get started and how to use the little stickers called trainers that come with the mouse.

The Greatest Twink Video Ever
Fony strikes again. (He did the Aion video review.) Apparently there are four of these videos. I can't say they are the greatest ever but I thought this one pretty funny.

Armory Data Mining Looks at Race and Class
The Armory Data Mining Site looks at the race and class distribution in WOW. Bottom line: No one likes trolls, especially troll warriors. Dwarf rogues aren't too popular, either.

UPDATE: A guest stats person looks at the feral druids using modern statistical techniques to decide how many current players (probably just Level 80s) are bears and how many are cats.

Pets in the Mailbox UPDATED
People who previously turned their WOW accounts into Battle.net accounts started receiving their penguin pets in their in-game mailboxes last night.
http://www.wow.com/2009/10/15/mr-chilly-is-in-the-mail-on-battle-net-accounts/
This week folks who viewed BlizzCon via DirecTv pay per view in the U.S. started to get little plastic cards via snail mail with their Grunty the Space Merloc pet code. Log into the website they give you, log into Battle.net, enter the 25 digit code on the back of the card and then Blizzard emails you your Grunty in the in-game email system.
Each character you have gets one of these pets. As far as we can tell, they are bind on equip so these won't show up on eBay unless someone didn't use their plastic Grunty card code when it arrived in the mail.
UPDATE: Some folks are not happy they have to switch to Battle.net but a lot of folks are unhappy their penguin pet looks pretty much like the brown blob you see out of the corner of your eye when a mouse runs across the room.
